Synopsis

In Afghanistan, elite operative John Stratton leads a raid on a remote compound, leaving no survivors.

Days later, in London, Stratton is contacted by an old friend in military intelligence with a curious message about being hunted by an assassin.

When the officer vanishes, Stratton is drawn into a desperate race to secure a missing nuclear warhead that has been stolen from the Pakistan military. Against an unknown enemy, he begins a heart-stopping search for the bomb that will take him from a Taliban hideout just a few miles outside Bagram Air Base to the crowded streets of Manhattan.

A terrifying and authentic vision of the special forces world by an ex-SBS operative, this is Duncan Falconer's most gripping thriller to date.

Goodreads review by Heidi

Took my time savoring this one knowing I will be waiting a mighty long time for Mr. Falconer to release another work. As always, I love his attention to detail and his world building skill as a story teller. I suppose from here I will be re-reading everything to keep me busy this year.......more

Falconer has never let me down. This book had me curious the whole time at the direction the story was going. And when the conclusion came about I laughed, mainly because it reminded me of a movie. Was a good one. Looking forward to the next.......more
